POPULAR GAY ICON

From being a stand-up comedian and playing supporting roles in movies and television shows, to becoming a breakout star via the groundbreaking talent search Showtime, comedian, host and performer Vice Ganda has become today’s most popular gay icon.

SUCCESS!

Testaments to Vice’s amazing success are a hit talk show (Gandang Gabi Vice), product endorsements, sold-out concerts here and abroad, and a box-office motion picture.

NEW MOVIE

His star shines even more with the upcoming release of his newest film, Praybeyt Benjamin. Here, Vice plays the role of Benjamin Santos whose family has a long tradition of serving in the military. In fact, the movie’s opening traces the roots of the Santos’ military service, from the days of Lapu-lapu and the Katipunan, up to the current times.

CONFLICT

Conflict ensues when Lolo Benjamin (Eddie Garcia) finds out that his apo (Vice) cannot continue the tradition because he is gay.
